Natalie Wildgoose has shared Nobody on the Path, the lead single from her forthcoming EP Rural Hours (15th April, state51). Wrapping her trembling vocals in guitar, piano, banjo and violin, the track draws on the physical rhythms of solitary moorland walking — music that moves the way the title suggests.
The latest KLOF Mixtape is an eclectic offering, featuring Cinder Well, whom many are discovering for the first time thanks to “The Wise Man’s Song”, the theme to the BBC Drama Small Prophets. Plus we’ve also music from Jenny Lysander, Cynefin, Northern Flyway (ft. Jenny Sturgeon, Inge Thomson, Sarah Hayes, Jason Singh), Frankie Archer, Malmin, Sourdure, Elle Osborne, Matt Kivel, M G Boulter, Sam Moss, Damien Jurado and The Lords.
Joshua Burnside’s “The Last Armchair” opens with a brutal intimacy: “Oh, The last armchair you ever sat on / Before you overdosed / Is the one I sit in every morning / To eat my egg and toast;” the Belfast songwriter revealing how grief strips away every carefully constructed illusion of adulthood, that beneath mortgages and responsibilities we’re all still waiting for reassurance.
Lemoncello reveal their new single “Meet Me Halfway”, their first new music since last year’s self-titled debut. Written in a clifftop cabin overlooking the Skellig Islands and later recorded with co-producer Ruth O’Mahony-Brady, the six-minute track explores modern disconnection through sparse guitar, voice, and distant strings—a quietly persuasive meditation on vulnerability and connection.
The Notwist have shared “Projectors,” a new single from one of 2026’s most anticipated albums, News from Planet Zombie (March 13th via Morr Music). The track offsets burbling electronics against country-tinged songwriting, featuring guests Enid Valu, Haruka Yoshizawa, Chris Xiao, and Mathias Götz. The band describes the lyrics as “written as if Rutger Hauer could sing them in Blade Runner.”
Gabriel Kahane and Roomful of Teeth have announced Elevator Songs, due April 3. The collaborative album centres on an interdimensional hotel where time and space dissolve. Lead single Speaking In Tongues—with a video by Robert Edridge-Waks—showcases the ensemble’s signature vocal work, building to a bone-shattering climax. Scored for eight voices, the album offers fizzy hooks and bold production.
Cat Clyde shares “Man’s World,” the second single from her March 13th album Mud Blood Bone via Concord Records. The track confronts patriarchal frustrations with unflinching honesty, and includes the lyric, “I can’t express my woman self/Without a shield across my chest”. Watch the new music video now.
With stream-of-consciousness lyrics and a viscerally raw video, Tōth’s new single “Thoughts Are Like Clouds” is an ode to meditation that balances deadly serious spiritual practice with self-aware humour. The track climaxes with an explosive plea over driving drums and clanking pianos, while the Brooklyn-shot video captures magical accidents, such as chalk dust floating in slow motion.
Kevin Morby announces Little Wide Open, out May 15th via Dead Oceans, with lead single Javelin featuring Amelia Meath. The accompanying video stars Morby and comedian Caleb Hearon on an ATV through Missouri backroads, capturing the restless motion at the album’s heart. Produced by Aaron Dessner, the album completes a trilogy exploring middle America with Morby’s most personal songwriting yet.
Tenderness shares “Day of Atonement”, a hypnotic indie-folk track featuring Deep Throat Choir, ahead of debut album True (March 13th via Amorphous Sounds). The impressionistic song explores care, codependency and addiction through layers of drones, pedal steel and ethereal vocals. Born from lockdown grief, True examines modern love and loss through both digital screens and natural landscapes.
Spencer Cullum has shared ‘Look at the Moon,’ a new single featuring Erin Rae, ahead of his album Coin Collection 3 (out March 27th via Full Time Hobby). Written as a tribute to his wife and her Nashville bookshop, the track circles around a quiet mantra—”Days might feel gloom / Look at the moon”—finding beauty in the patient work of building something meaningful together.
